Rachel's Wedding Reception Paper Suite

I'm showing you custom pieces from Rachel's Wedding Reception paper suite.  The suite includes:  A Bride and Groom chair sign, (I'm only showing the Bride's chair sign).  A favor table sign, a sign to be used with a flip flop display near the dance floor. And a sign to be used along with a photo booth.


This is the Bride's chair sign. Rachel selected Chiavari chairs for her reception, so this sign was made to fit nicely on the back side of a Chiavari chair.  This style chair has posts on either side of the back that are perfect for tying on ribbon.  This sign is made in two parts.  First is the background frame, and on top of that a layered piece with the word "Bride."  The ribbon for tying is a fat 2.5" wide and is a soft light  cream color.



I made two different styles of signs for Rachel's favor table.  The Favor table is a ten foot banquet style that will feature beautiful favor bags filled with treats.  
This first table sign is a Flat 8.5" x 11.0"
Holding this sign is a plate stand I happen to have handy for the photograph.
I decided while I was designing these signs that they would work best with Rachel's reception decor if kept to one color and minimum design changes.  There are always such a beautiful variety of colors used during a reception with the flowers, and the food, the table cloths, etc., that I thought it would be best not to try and  compete with all of the other colors being featured. 




This is the second choice of Favor Table sign.  This is a bit smaller: 4.75" x 6.75"
Two signs of this size would be sufficient for a ten foot table.




Here is a great big sign for Rachel to use for her Photo Booth.
This is a very generous 10.75" x 13.75"
Again, I'm showing this sign to you with a soft 2.5" ribbon that would be perfect for hanging this sign.
Notice I have continued to pull the same design theme throughout.




 Sign to display along with the box of Flip Flops.
I realized while uploading these photos that I have misspelled the "Sole" in the Sole Mates.
I guess I'm always thinking in terms of true love-and this is just how it comes out.
But, I will correct the spelling.
This sign is kind of a chubby (almost) square.  I thought the dimensions would be nice to work with a box.
The dimensions are: 7.75" x 8.0"

I enjoyed making these signs for you!
Please, let me know your thoughts.
Thanks,
